a devil's mixtape
So, because I have once again failed to congratulate the world on Elizabeth's existence in a timely manner, let me make up for that by offering music. As one does. So this is for antistar_e: happy birthday darling ♥ and the beautiful author of the story, Mary Borsellino, also sharpestrose on tumblr. The Devil's Mixtape can be found here on amazon. The art on the cover is by crowthis. QUOTES LOOK LIKE THIS.

THERE'S ALWAYS SOMEONE HURTINGChildren waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
{ mad world; alex parks }
ELLAVRENNA
The screams were heard for miles
The sight no one believed
She dreamed that they would bleed
But dreams can much deceive
The scarlet river flowed
Now our villain is free
{ the red death ball; hana pestle }
GOD IS NEVER GUILTY AND THUS IS MERCILESS
The magician's secrets all revealed
And the preacher's lies are all concealed
And all our heroes lack any conviction
They shout through the bars of cliche and addiction
So I've got to go, I've got to go, so here I go
I'm going to run the risk of being free
{ the libertine; patrick wolf }
I WANT THE SHARPEST OF THE ROSES
There's bodies decomposing in containers tonight
In an abandoned building where
Squatters made a mural of a Mexican girl
With fifteen cans of spray paint and a chemical swirl
She's standing in the ashes at the end of the world
Four winds blowing through her hair
{ four winds; bright eyes }
HUMANITY'S CAPACITY FOR CRUELTY EXCEEDS EVEN GOD'S
We pay to shed a sombre tear in the darkness together here
One among the hundreds, crying for the millions
And when the house lights break the trance
Only then unclasp our hands
Compose ourselves and fix our hair
"We would have all been Schindler there"
Drive in silence slowly home
Now horror's more than skin and bone
{ 400 miles from darwin; the whitlams }
YOU CAN'T MAKE ME LOVED. I KNOW THAT FOR CERTAIN
Through the forest, down to your grave
Where the birds wait and the tall grasses wave
They do not know you anymore
Dear shadow, alive and well
How can the body die?
You tell me everything, anything true
{ tiger mountain peasant song; first aid kit }
LOVE IS BEING ABLE TO SEE THE INVISIBLE BLOOD
I think you needed to be found
And to feel surrounded at every turn
Kissing silhouettes dissolving into smoke
It’s an epic soundtrack for the neon days
It’s your revolution and your barricade
{ day glow avenue; alina simone }
I DON'T CARE IF THIS IS HARD FOR YOU
When I think of it, my fingers turn to fists
I never did anything to you, man
No matter what I try,
You beat me with your bitter lies
So call me crazy, hold me down
Make me cry, get off now, baby
It won't be long 'till you'll be lying
Limp in your own hands
{ limp; fiona apple }
AS RED AS YOURS
She said, I'm not after glory, I'm not after fame
You might not ever know my name
I'm no rock giant, if you know what I mean
I'm 5'6", I weigh 114
I'll play in the streets, I'll play in the bars
Out on the highways and under the stars
Dreaming the dream I had as a girl
When all I ever wanted was to rock the world
{ first lady of rock; the stone coyotes }
THE WONDROUS HURT
Leave it by its pain, leave it all alone
If I never turn, I will never grow
Keep the door ajar when I'm coming home
I will try, can't you see I'm trying
{ give us a little love; fallulah }
I DIDN'T KNOW DEMONS HAD HEARTS
So if you wanna fuck up with a beer bottle in your hand then so do I
And if you wanna cut up the blueprints and the plans then so do I
You wanna get messed up, and make a final stand? well, so do I
Cause I look around me and I see, nothing can save me now
{ love knows how to fight; m.craft }
A MATCH MADE IN HELL
Suzanne and I, never will we be apart
But we hold, hold, hold it down
'Cause the night calls me
When the wind leads behind the world
{ suzanne and i; anne calvi }
MATTER IS ETERNAL BUT WILL NOT ALWAYS MATTER
It's not even making sense, the ground we walk or sky above us
So how to understand the end? I build a shelter under my covers
Where I sit I think of you, my only love
Tell me I'm wrong but I feel
So free and so small at the same time
{ tell me I'm wrong; eskobar }
ONLY LOVE. ONLY SKY
One of these days letters are gonna fall from the sky
Telling us all to go free
But until that day I'll find a way to let everybody know
That you're coming back, you're coming back for me
'Cause even though you left me here I have nothing left to fear
These are only walls that hold me here
You're coming back for me
{ letters from the sky; civil twilight }
IT'S ALRIGHT, THAT YOU WEREN'T THERE. I SAVED MYSELF.
And when he saw her, raised for the slaughter,
Abraham’s daughter raised her bow.
How darest you, child, defy your father?
You better let young Isaac go.
{ abraham's daughter; arcade fire }
GLAD KIDS AREN'T SCARED OF LOOKING LIKE WHO THEY ARE ON THE INSIDE
We are not your kind of people
Speak a different language
We see through your lies
We are not your kind of people
Won't be cast as demons
Creatures you despise
{ not your kind of people; garbage }
AND THE REST IS MUSIC
I can take your problems away with a nod and a wave
Of my hand, 'cause that's just the kind of boy that I am
The only thing I haven't done yet is die
And it's me and my plus one at the afterlife
Crowds are won and lost and won again
But our hearts beat for the diehards
